Short summary
In this paper the electromagnetic field distortion of a DVOR surveillance navigation system in presence of a wind turbine (WT) is investigated as a function of wind direction and rotor position. Therefor regularities of the distortion behavior were determined by 2040 simulations. Based on the calculated data a method is developed which allows to approximate the worst case distortion with the results of only two simplified simulations, which significantly reduces simulation effort.
